On Thursday, June 16, I'll be speaking on the opening panel at the American Constitution Society for Law and Policy's National Convention in Washington DC (June 16-18), "The Constitution at the Crossroads".  On the panel:

 

Ruben Bolling, Cartoonist, “Tom the Dancing Bug”

Barry Eisler, Author, thrillers including The Lost Coast (2011) and Inside Out (2010) 

Seema Gajwani, Program Officer for Criminal and Juvenile Justice, Public Welfare Foundation

Dahlia Lithwick, Senior Editor, Slate

Eric Liu, Co-Founder, The True Patriot Network

Matthew McGough, Author and Screenwriter, including episodes for NBC’s “Law & Order”

Lisa Brown, Executive Director, Government Reform for Competition and Innovation Initiative, Moderator

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just got this book (from the Wish List, thanks to a generous member of Team Dancing Bug) compiling some of the Dell Popeye comic book stories by Bud Sagendorf.

 

It's a beautiful tribute to some truly weird comics from the 1940s and 1950s.  And while I'm always partial to comics compilation books that include full issues and (especially) covers, this one couldn't have been more meticulously, thoughtfully and imaginatively packaged, with plenty of extra contextual information, photos, and additional biographical artwork.

 

Another terrific book from Craig Yoe (Yoe Books!) that captures the silly fun of old comics for kids.
